    a. $ (3,881)

    Explanation:

    Gain on sale of fixed assets is an income. To be included in the operating section of the cash flow statement, we need to deduct the gain. The disposal of the fixed assets will go to the investing section. As the gain of the sale of assets is already added to the net income in the income statement, it will be deducted to make the accounting procedure transparent. Therefore, option A is correct.
